Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Chicken Lettuce Wraps Recipe

Lettuce wraps are gaining popularity as the warmer weather arrives and we attempt (I’m trying!) to eat healthier. Because, let’s face it, bathing suit season is quickly approaching! Skip the high carb bread and just wrap in lettuce and you’ll be happy you did! Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps combine ground chicken with fresh ginger, garlic and Thai basil for a burst of Thailand flavor! A quick cook on the stove top, spoon into lettuce leaves and drizzle with fresh lime juice and your taste buds will thank you! I visited Thailand years ago and have vivid memories of the flavorful foods, especially the street foods that are readily available on the sidewalks along with tables to sit and eat at. Did you know that most apartments in Thailand don’t have a stove? Yep, that’s right, they just head on down to the outdoor vendors, get some food and sit down at an outdoor table to dine with other neighbors. Quite a concept! So why not cook up a batch of Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps and invite some neighbors over to dine “Thailand style” together on your picnic table? It will be fun!
